Wow thank you all for your opinions and help! I do really, really appreciate it. Navane, yes I totally agree with you. So far I've had issues with the stereotypes, it's extremely frustrating. It is also totally ridiculous as the rugby club, and in fact, ANY club haze every freshers and practically every week. If you don't call making people binge drink/get naked/do ridiculous stuff you know they wouldn't do otherwise for initiation/in a general week to week thing, hazing I don't know what the SU think hazing is...

Frustration.

I've also been having deals with the principle that in a sorority you get to pick who is in it. Apparently in our SU's constitution you have to let anyone and everyone join your society who wants to join, which you know, is a bit of a prob. However, I'm going to talk with them again and take some of the information I've gathered off here for them to read. I'm also taking some of the information I've found about how Greeks are AGAINST hazing. And maybe tell them to stop being so stereotypical and that they should feel bad about themselves. Haha I'm totally kidding, gotta keep in their good books!

I will PM (once I find out how to do that...) you navane as it would be great to hear more of your experiences with others who were on the same mission as me!

Before you go trying to explain American fraternities and sororities to anyone, you should do the necessary research first and get a clear understanding yourself so that when questions/concerns arise you are well prepared to deal with them. All of these organizations promote sisterhood/brotherhood and philanthropy so these are the positives that you want to express to others. Again, even though you are excited about the possibility of creating a new organization, you should slow down and do the research first. Good Luck!!!
